In light of the Guyana senior women’s football team seeking government intervention into the unequitable distribution of resources by the Guyana Football Federation (GFF), former Golden Jaguars captain Christopher Nurse, declared that the Federation needs to publicise financial packages for the women’s team so as to ascertain whether the claims in the letter are indeed accurate.
This was stated during an exclusive interview with Stabroek Sport yesterday. According to Nurse, “The Women’s National Team have gone to the Government seeking assistance in equal treatment. If a third party ‘International Supporters Group’ are running the Lady Jags operations, the first question we need to ask is, why? The GFF have set a precedent now of making public the financial packages for all their playing staff. They should continue this for the technical and administrative staff inclusive of Head Coach and Technical Director, including the female staff to clarify if it is indeed true that they are not paid for their services but conducts the program voluntarily. I believe this is a key characteristics of organisations that reflect Transparency, Honesty and Integrity.”
